“We must be ready to allow ourselves to be interrupted by God.”

“We must be ready to allow ourselves to be interrupted by God... It is a strange fact that Christians and even ministers frequently consider their work so important and urgent that they will allow nothing to disturb them. They think they are doing God a service in this but actually they are disdaining God's "crooked but straight path". It is part of the discipline of humility that we must not spare our hand where it can perform service and that we do not assume that our schedule is our own to manage, but allow it to be arranged by God.”

“We cannot and we must not allow ourselves to get distracted from our sacred duty. We cannot and we must not lose focus on the things that matter most.”

“In order to move others deeply we must deliberately allow ourselves to be carried away beyond the bounds of our normal sensibility”

“We must be ready to learn from one another, not claiming that we alone possess all truth and that somehow we have a corner on God.”

“We are only victims if we allow ourselves to be.”
